Little Cubs Yoga

Is it just mine or is every house the same where the Cereal is devoured but there’s still a bowl full of milk?
Here’s a simple trick to ensure your little ones start the day cool, calm and happy.

Milk Bubble Breaths; Using a straw take a big breath in, then slowly exhale blowing gently down through the straw creating lots of milk bubbles. Repeat the process. Be careful not to blow to hard. Try counting the bubbles as they appear.

Crow yoga pose not only builds and tones the core, its also a superb pose for strengthening the arms, wrists and upper back. Crow pose improves balance and deepens concentration and focus, while opening the hips. The perfect pose to practice as you build up to other arm balances like the Handstand.

Here’s how; Start in squat pose, hands spread out on the floor in front of you. Glue your elbows to the inside of your knees and lean forward. Shift your weight forward and then lift one foot off the floor at a time. Once you have your balance try lifting both legs.

The Hoberman Sphere also
known as The Breathing Ball, can be a super prop to help with classroom management.
It can create silence and draw children’s attention quickly. It’s a super way of quietening the children without having to ask.
It can be used as a tool to create calmness and connect to breath. It’s vibrant colours and movements are a sure way to captivate your audience.

How to use your Breathing Ball;

1. Use the ball to help with self regulation. Ensure easy access to the ball so that the child can use it on their own.
2. Have the child use the ball in a way that the lungs work. Have the child breath in as the ball opens and exhale as the ball closes. *Be aware of lung capacity. A child’s lungs are much smaller than an adults therefore they cannot inhale as deeply as an adult would. Therefore, you would open and close the ball a little faster then you would for you or I. This is very important when using the ball as a breathing technique.
3. Ask the class to follow the ball with their breaths as you open and close the ball.
4. Use the ball for fun too.

HAPPY BABY POSE 👶
BENEFITS: Stretches and opens the hips, hamstrings, glutes and groin. Soothes the lower back.
For a fun beneficial variation of this pose, ask your child to stretch out one leg, then the other, just as babies would do.
Lie on your back and wrap your hands around the soles of your feet. For younger children have them wrap the first two fingers around their big toes. Pull your feet back so that your knees come in towards your armpits.
Staying in Happy Baby pose ask, What sounds do babies make? Does your baby have a name ? Are you a happy baby etc.
